I met Amy this past fall after she moved to the Syracuse area and contacted various local bloggers about establishing a group. The timing was perfect because I was kind of in a rut personally and professionally and had all but fallen off the frugal wagon. I had no idea that there were other bloggers like myself in this area, or that I would enjoy their company so much. CNY Blogger Mamas was established, and we have met up several times over the past few months. I feel very fortunate to have met such a diverse group of women with different backgrounds, ideas and lifestyles who share a common bond.

I really appreciate Amy taking the initiative to start our local group, and she will be sorely missed. I hope you will explore her site and add Frugal Mama to the blogs you follow. Amy has a reasoned and refreshing approach to both frugality and parenting that I really enjoy.
